If, during
your use of the MaxSea program things aren’t working like they should (e.g. you
double clicked on a route without launching the MaxSea program) you can
usually/normally/often recover by closing the program completely, hold down the
CTL key and launch the program. This brings up the following screen: (You
might have to do this several times if you don’t get this screen)

Click OK
and the program will start and begin a search for charts. When done you will
have something like this:

Select the
line CM93ed2 and click OK. Note that
the program has, in addition, found the Vector / S57
charts which are also installed in this case. If you want to also view these
charts within the MaxSea program do another search (File/Open Chart)
and select the line Vector / S57. When
MaxSea is running you can switch between the charts (Click on ‘Windows’ and
select the desired chart version).

This reset will also restore
the Planning Route Center (when a planning
route is displayed) to the original format with many useless columns.

The unwanted columns are
deleted by right-clicking on a column heading and selecting 'Hide This
Column'

The columns I find the most
useful are the following (after deleting 23 unwanted ones):
